“Despite its expensive price tag, the technology is nowhere near where it needs to be in order to be useful for even such basic tasks”

ai has been doing that trick since the 1950s. There have been a lot of use coming out of ai, but it has never been called ai once successful and never lived up to the early hype. some in the know about all those previous ones were surprised by the hype and not surprised about where it has gone, while others pushed the hype.
The details have changed but nothing else.
Yeah the only innovation here is that OpenAI had the balls to use the entire internet as a training set. The underlying algorithms aren’t really new, and the limitations have been understood by data scientists, computer scientists, and mathematicians for a long time.
So now it just has to use every conversation that happens as a data set. They could use microphones from all over the world to listen and learn and understand better…
LISP machines were cool. They can bring back that kind of “AI” right now, I want to have one.
I mean, how cool can it be, having hardware acceleration of LISP-typical operations, and a whole LISP-built operating system.
Maybe resurrecting Genera is too much, but we can do with porting Emacs.
(Repeating myself due to being banned from my previous instance for offering to solve a problem with nukes)
Bring back Lisp machines. I like what was called AI when they were being made.
